Hi, I'd like to add a sysctl which would return the contents of msgbuf. This would be useful for examining its contents on systems running kernels without symbol table, where dmesg refuses to work. How do I go about it? I tried to do it straight away like this (in i386/machdep.c:213): SYSCTL_OPAQUE(_machdep,OID_AUTO,msgbuf,CTLFLAG_RD,msgbufp,MSGBUF_SIZE, \ "S,msgbuf",""); but it doesn't like the msgbufp, because it's not a const.
